Sean Payton hints at bigger role for Saints QB Taysom Hill

Sep 18, 2019

When Sean Payton was asked a question about Taysom Hill being the No. 2 quarterback, he said, "You're assuming he's the No. 2." He said they'll approach Sunday's game with two QBs. And he said that can be an advantage against the Seahawks.

Fantasy Impact:

Teddy Bridgewater is the likely starting quarterback in Week 3, but we could see a lot of Taysom Hill, especially if Bridgewater struggles. Sean Payton has had no qualms with subbing Drew Brees out for Hill on high leverage plays, so the same should happen with Bridgewater but to a much larger extent. This makes both quarterbacks iffy for fantasy due to their undetermined snap counts.

Saints RB Alvin Kamara off injury report ahead of Week 15

The Saints officially listed QB Derek Carr (left hand/concussion) as doubtful for Sunday vs. Washington. Jake Haener will make his first NFL start.

RB Alvin Kamara (illness) is off the injury report and good to go.

Related Players: Kendre Miller

Fantasy Impact:

It would have been an easy click for a Kendre Miller week if Kamara were forced to miss, but this puts the kibosh on that. Fire Kamara up as an RB2 this week in a game that may feature him even more than usual with no Carr.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker Doubtful for Week 15

The Seahawks list RB Kenneth Walker III (calf) as doubtful for Sunday's game.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

Looks like a clear runway for another Charbonnet week in what should be a tightly contested game against the Packers at home. Fire him up as a fringe RB1/2.
